Subjects

The Library of Congress does not own rights to material in its collections. Therefore, it does not license or charge permission fees for use of such material and cannot grant or deny permission to publish or otherwise distribute the material.

Ultimately, it is the researcher's obligation to assess copyright or other use restrictions and obtain permission from third parties when necessary before publishing or otherwise distributing materials found in the Library's collections.

Obtaining Copies

Some images in this collection are described in groups; others are described individually. In some cases, all of the images in the group display online, in other cases they do not.

You can download online images yourself. Alternatively, you can purchase copies of various types.

Determine whether the desired materials can be retrieved online.

Look in the Medium field above to determine whether the description is for one photograph or more than one.

If the description is for a single item and it is displaying, you can download or purchase a print. Cite the number that begins with "LC-DIG..." when purchasing copies through Library of Congress Duplication Services.

If the description is for more than one item and there is a "Click for more images" icon displaying, select that. Individual images will display; you can download or purchase prints. Cite the number that begins with "LC-DIG..." when purchasing copies through Library of Congress Duplication Services.

If the description is for more than one item and there is no "Click for more images" icon displaying, return to the "About this Item" tab and select the "Check for online items from this group" link. Then select the "Obtaining Copies" tab for any retrieved items that are of interest.

If the images do not display online -- Select images for reproduction through one of these methods:

Purchasing Copies

Library of Congress Duplication Services can make copies of various types from images in Prints & Photographs Division Collections. Price lists, contact information, and order forms are available on the Duplication Services Web site.

Access to Originals

Please use the following steps to determine whether you need to fill out a call slip in the Prints
and Photographs Reading Room to view the original item(s). In some cases, a surrogate (substitute image) is
available, often in the form of a digital image, a copy print, or microfilm.

Is the item digitized? (A thumbnail (small) image will be visible on the left.)

Yes, the item is digitized.
Please use the digital image in preference to requesting the original. All images can be
viewed at a large size when you are in any reading room at the Library of Congress. In some
cases, only thumbnail (small) images are available when you are outside the Library of
Congress because the item is rights restricted or has not been evaluated for rights
restrictions.
As a preservation measure, we generally do not serve an original item when a digital image
is available. If you have a compelling reason to see the original, consult with a reference
librarian. (Sometimes, the original is simply too fragile to serve. For example, glass and
film photographic negatives are particularly subject to damage. They are also easier to see
online where they are presented as positive images.)

No, the item is not digitized. Please go to #2.

Do the Access Advisory or Call Number fields above indicate that a non-digital surrogate exists,
such as microfilm or copy prints?

Yes, another surrogate exists. Reference staff can direct you to this
surrogate.

No, another surrogate does not exist. Please go to #3.

If you do not see a thumbnail image or a reference to another surrogate, please fill out a call slip in
the Prints and Photographs Reading Room. In many cases, the originals can be served in a few minutes.
Other materials require appointments for later the same day or in the future. Reference staff can
advise you in both how to fill out a call slip and when the item can be served.

To contact Reference staff in the Prints and Photographs Reading Room, please use our
Ask A Librarian service or call the reading room between 8:30 and
5:00 at 202-707-6394, and Press 3.
